I arrive to the lake. There i see Sarah reading her book, she looks good today. She puts me at ease. I always think of the time we've spent together.

"Hello Sarah!"

I yell out

"Rose! I thought you'd never come by"

She walks over with a smile and gives me a loving hug

"you look a bit off, anything wrong?"

She asks.

"yes, it's that James Bennett, always trying to get with a woman with a wealthy family and use her for money, does he not think the money he has is enough? A disgusting man."

"I don't understand why it's only us who dislike him. I'm sorry about that, but at least he isn't targeting me. I never had a wealthy family but our families are so close. Yours is so generous to give some money, remember the time my family was all out of money on my birthday and you begged and begged your parents to buy me the doll I've always wanted?"

"Oh yes I surely do. You deserved it, and you were my only friend. What more could I do for someone who appreciates me?"

Oh Sarah, always so kind to anyone. I remember how there was a boy in out class with learning disability and she'd stay in class to help him with his work. A heart of gold that she has

"Oh rose I have something for you"

she shuffles around her basket and pulls something out

"A rose for rose! I hope you like it, it was the only one growing in my father's garden"

"oh thank you it's stunning!"

I give her a hug and i examine the rose. It really is beautiful, but..... My heart, it's going faster? I feel flustered. Maybe cause of its beauty. I've always loved flowers.

Later on that day Rose and Sarah spend hours talking and eat dinner Sarah has packed for the two of them, and then they return back home.
